So can with that Immerse a pumping chamber wall into the annular space in the course of actuating the dispenser in the course of a dispenser actuation.
  • the annular space of the mounting part assigned to the inlet valve can, for example, accommodate a corresponding shape of a follower piston of the container storing the mass.

  • the mass that has passed through the outlet valve flows through the space between the annular part on the outlet valve side and the head cover essentially at right angles to the direction of flow in the pumping chamber.
  • This consideration is related in particular with reference to a vertical section through the dispenser in the usual dispenser position, further in particular through the pump chamber and the space directly adjoining the outlet valve.

  • the space 39 between the circular ring part 51 and the head cover 35 is flowed through by the mass M, which has previously passed through the outlet valve 10, essentially at right angles to the direction of flow within the pump chamber 8.
  • the output channel 37 is also essentially shown in accordance with FIG Figure 3 aligned at right angles to axis x.
  • FIGS. 7 to 15 show a second embodiment of the dispenser 1.
  • This is designed as a double dispenser, with two storage spaces 4, two dispensing heads 3 with dispenser heads 12 and two follower pistons 6.
  • the arrangement and design of the devices of the dispensing heads 3, such as pumping chamber 8, pumping piston 32, mounting parts 22 and 41 and the design of inlet and outlet valves 9, 10 correspond to the design described above reference is made in full to the relevant explanations.
  • the storage spaces 4 are formed by a common fixed part 55.
  • This can have a circular plan according to Figure 14 have, with two separating walls 56 running secant-like on both sides of a donor axis y.
  • the fixed part 55 is connected to a lower part 7 of the dispensing head 3, which lower part 7 bridges, preferably in one piece, both storage spaces 4 on the opening side.
  • the lower part 7 carries, assigned to a dispenser head 12, the respective pump chamber wall 18 and a central mandrel 19 protruding into the pump chamber wall 18.
  • the lower mounting part 22 is latched on the underside in the region of a respective pot wall 17, with the circular ring part 30 interposed between the inlet valve side.
  • Each dispenser head 1 has a receiving cylinder 36 on the underside for latching the upper mounting part 41.
  • a circular ring part 51 is mounted between a mounting part 41 and the head cover 35 to form the outlet valve 10.
  • the dispenser heads 12 can be linearly displaced independently of one another in the direction of extent of the axis y, this with the corresponding dragging of the respective pump plunger 32. Thus, by downward displacement or actuation of only one dispenser head 12, the mass stored in the associated storage space 4 is dispensed. Simultaneous actuation of both dispenser heads 12 can also take place.
  • the dispenser heads 12 have a substantially semicircular contour with reference to a floor plan according to FIG. 8, with a dispenser head wall 57 running along a semicircle line and a wall section 58 running at least approximately along a radial line to the dispenser axis y.
  • the wall sections 58 of both dispenser heads 12 can rest against one another and are thus guided relative to one another and movable in the axial direction of the dispenser 1.
  • dispenser heads 12 can be guided on the fixed part 55, for example by guide blocks 59 which cross the plane of separation between the straight wall sections 58 and which engage in corresponding indentations in the wall sections 58.
  • each dispenser head 12 along which axes x the parts on the dispenser head side, such as the pump chamber and mounting parts as well as inlet and outlet valves, are arranged, lie with reference to a cross section according to FIG Figure 15 on a line that can run at right angles to a plane of separation of the dispenser heads 12 between the straight wall sections 58. More preferably, the dispenser axis y, which centrally penetrates the fixed part 55, also lies on this line connecting the axis x.
  • the axes x can be equally spaced from the donor axis y.
  • the output channels 37 are arranged such that their output openings 38 are arranged offset with respect to the axes x in the direction of the straight wall sections 58.
  • a distance between the output openings 38, viewed transversely to the axes x, is selected to be smaller than the distance between the axes x, viewed in the same direction.
  • the trailing pistons 6 in each storage space 4 have a plan contour according to FIG Figure 14 on, with a marginal edge partially oriented on a straight line, in particular running along the partition wall 56 of the fixed part 55, and a curved marginal edge with a degree of curvature adapted to the inner radius of the fixed part 55.
  • the recess 52 on the piston side is arranged eccentrically of the piston surface in accordance with the lower mounting part 22 arranged on the axis x, further in particular as an extension of the axis x on the dispenser head side.
  • the eccentricity here relates to a distance between the x axis and the edge of the trailing piston 6 that connects the x and crosses the x axes and intersects the edge of the trailing piston 6. This distance is greater than the outer, curved edge than the inner, less curved or straight edge edge. There can be a ratio of 2: 1 or 1.5: 1 in this regard.
